‘It is enough to lie on the sward in the shadow of green boughs, to listen to the songs of summer, to drink in the sunlight, the air, the flowers, the sky, the beauty of all ------ I want to be always in company with these, with earth, and sun, and sea, and stars by night.’
‘The hours when the mind is absorbed by beauty are the only hours when we really live, so that the longer we can stay among these things, so much the more is snatched from inevitable time.’
Richard Jefferies. | Earth's Voices | |
